WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 U vreme Asvirovo, a taj Asvir carovaše od Indije do Etiopije u sto i dvadeset i sedam zemalja,
1 Now in the days of Ahasuerus (this is Ahasuerus who reigned from India even to Ethiopia, over one hundred twenty-seven provinces),
2 u to vreme, kad seđaše car Asvir na prestolu carstva svog u Susanu carskom gradu,
2 in those days, when the King Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Susa the palace,
3 treće godine carovanja svog učini gozbu svim knezovima svojim i slugama svojim, te beše kod njega sila persijska i midska, vlastelji i upravitelji zemaljski;
3 in the third year of his reign, he made a feast for all his princes and his servants; the army of Persia and Media, the nobles and princes of the provinces being before him.
4 i on pokazivaše bogatstvo i slavu carstva svog i diku i krasotu veličine svoje mnogo dana, sto i osamdeset dana.
4 He displayed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the honor of his excellent majesty many days, even one hundred eighty days.
5 I posle tih dana učini car svemu narodu što ga beše u Susanu carskom gradu od malog do velikog gozbu za sedam dana u tremu u vrtu od carskog dvora.
5 When these days were fulfilled, the king made a seven day feast for all the people who were present in Susa the palace, both great and small, in the court of the garden of the king’s palace.
6 Zavesi beli, zeleni i ljubičasti behu obešeni vrpcama belim, lanenim i skerletnim o biočuzima srebrnim na stupovima mramornim; odri behu zlatni i srebrni po podu od zelenog, belog, žutog i crvenog mramora.
6 There were hangings of white and blue material, fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rings and marble pillars. The couches were of gold and silver, on a pavement of red, white, yellow, and black marble.
7 A piće davahu u sudovima zlatnim, i to u sudovima drugim i drugim, a vina carskog beše izobila, kako može biti u cara.
7 They gave them drinks in golden vessels of various kinds, including royal wine in abundance, according to the bounty of the king.
8 I pićem niko ne navaljivaše po naredbi, jer car beše zapovedio svim pristavima doma svog da čine kako ko hoće.
8 In accordance with the law, the drinking was not compulsory; for so the king had instructed all the officials of his house, that they should do according to every man’s pleasure.
9 I carica Astina učini gozbu ženama u carskom dvoru cara Asvira.
9 Also Vashti the queen made a feast for the women in the royal house which belonged to King Ahasuerus.
10 Sedmi dan kad se car razveseli od vina reče Meumanu, Visati, Arvoni, Vikti, Avakti, Zetaru i Harkasu, sedmorici dvorana koji dvorahu pred carem Asvirom,
10 On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcass, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of Ahasuerus the king,
11 da dovedu caricu Astinu pred cara pod carskim vencem, da pokaže narodima i knezovima lepotu njenu, jer beše lepa.
11 to bring Vashti the queen before the king wearing the royal crown, to show the people and the princes her beauty; for she was beautiful.
12 Ali carica Astina ne hte doći na reč carevu, koju joj poruči po dvoranima; zato se car vrlo razgnevi i gnev se njegov raspali u njemu.
12 But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king’s commandment by the eunuchs. Therefore the king was very angry, and his anger burned in him.
13 I reče car mudracima koji razumevahu vremena (jer tako car iznošaše stvari pred sve koji razumevahu zakon i pravdu,
13 Then the king said to the wise men, who knew the times (for it was the king’s custom to consult those who knew law and judgment;
14 a najbliži do njega behu Karsena, Setar, Admata, Tarsis, Meres, Marsena i Memukan, sedam knezova persijskih i midskih, koji gledahu lice carevo i seđahu na prvim mestima u carstvu):
14 and next to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who saw the king’s face, and sat first in the kingdom),
15 Šta treba po zakonu činiti s caricom Astinom što nije učinila šta je zapovedio car Asvir preko dvorana?
15 “What shall we do to Queen Vashti according to law, because she has not done the bidding of the King Ahasuerus by the eunuchs?”
16 Tada reče Memukan pred carem i knezovima: Nije samo caru skrivila carica Astina nego i svim knezovima i svim narodima po svim zemljama cara Asvira.
16 Memucan answered before the king and the princes, “Vashti the queen has not done wrong to just the king, but also to all the princes, and to all the people who are in all the provinces of the King Ahasuerus.
17 Jer će se delo caričino razići među sve žene, pa će prezirati muževe svoje govoreći: Car Asvir zapovedi da dovedu preda nj caricu Astinu, a ona ne dođe.
17 For this deed of the queen will become known to all women, causing them to show contempt for their husbands when it is reported, ‘King Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she didn’t come.’
18 I od danas će kneginje persijske i midske koje čuju šta je učinila carica tako govoriti svim knezovima carevim; te će biti mnogo prkosa i svađe.
18 Today, the princesses of Persia and Media who have heard of the queen’s deed will tell all the king’s princes. This will cause much contempt and wrath.
19 Ako je ugodno caru, da iziđe carska zapovest od njega i da se upiše među zakone persijske i midske da je nepromenljivo, da Astina ne izlazi više pred cara Asvira i da će car dati njeno carstvo drugoj, boljoj od nje.
19 “If it pleases the king, let a royal commandment go from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, so that it cannot be altered, that Vashti may never again come before King Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate to another who is better than she.
20 I kad se zapovest careva koju učini čuje po carstvu njegovom svemu kolikom, sve će žene poštovati svoje muževe, od velikog do malog.
20 When the king’s decree which he shall make is published throughout all his kingdom (for it is great), all the wives will give their husbands honor, both great and small.”
21 I ovo bi po volji caru i knezovima, i učini car kako reče Memukan.
21 This advice pleased the king and the princes, and the king did according to the word of Memucan:
22 I razasla knjige po svim zemljama carskim, u svaku zemlju njenim pismom i svakom narodu njegovim jezikom, da bi svaki muž bio gospodar u svojoj kući; i bi proglašeno jezikom svakog naroda.
22 for he sent letters into all the king’s provinces, into every province according to its writing, and to every people in their language, that every man should rule his own house, speaking in the language of his own people.
